GaleRio in Porto Maravilha
The Olympic Refugee Team consists of 10 athletes.
The port zone won another graffiti mural. The sequence of graphite panels performed by twenty artists, of the most varied styles, in the Orla Mayor Luiz Paulo Conde. Added, the facades of warehouses 7 and 8 and the walls that connect them result in a mural of about 2km2. The multicolored artistic corridor ends with the wall of the portraitists Sini and Cety, in honor of the 10 athletes who make up the first refugee team in the history of the Olympic Games. In the newly opened Muhammad Ali Square, a 9m x 4m whale made of steel plates by the artist and sculptor Acme works as a swing.
